Chinese Cucumber Salad (Huang Gua Sela)

This is one of my all-time favorite cucumber salads. My friend Katie, who used to be a missionary in China, gave me the recipe. Even my 1-year-old twins like it! It needs to chill, so make it ahead; be warned, however, that if you go heavy on the garlic, it will just get stronger the longer it sits. A couple of hours of chilling is ideal. I usually leave out the red pepper spice. This makes a fair amount; you can estimate the amount for one cucumber if you need servings for 3-4.
